Monday

Action Against Hunger, an organization that saves the lives of malnourished children and families while providing food, safe water and sanitation had a charity benefit party to help raise funds. Restaurants Against Hunger hosted the event at Touch and donated auction items, such as dinner at popular restaurants, gift certificates, and cooking classes with famous chefs like Jacques Pépin whom was at the event and I had the pleasure of meeting. The benefit seemed to go well; there were many attendees, an open bar, Rosa Mexicano made their famous fresh guacamole, and two bands shared the stage breaking only for a short film about the charity and a petition asking Al Gore to help with the charities efforts to eradicate hunger. Here's a link to sign the petition. http://www.askalgore.org/index_en.php
